Oral presentations consist of a 45--minute presentation followed by a 15-30-minute
question-answer session. The nature of the presentation is indicated on
the syllabus. You and your team members should assume the
role of consultants employed to present your analysis and recommendations to the
assigned company’s senior management — (you do NOT have the option of ignoring
this assigned role). All team members are expected to make roughly equal contributions to the
presentation, both the formal presentation and the Q&A session.

All presentations should incorporate the use of attractive, effective PowerPoint
slides, including charts and graphs..

In addition to the factors on the Grading Form, your grade on the presentation
will also be based on six factors:

1.The clarity and thoroughness with
which your team identifies and articulates the problems facing the company and
the issues which management needs to address.

2The caliber (depth and breadth) of your team’s analysis of the company’s situation and demonstrated ability to use the concepts and tools of strategic analysis
in a competent fashion.

5.The degree of preparation,
professionalism, energy, enthusiasm, and skills demonstrated in delivering your
part of the presentation.

6.Your personal contributions to your
team’s answers to the questions posed by the class—how well you defend and
support your team’s analysis and recommendations during the Q&A period.
Every team member is expected to answer at least one question posed by the class
(or else there is no individual contribution for the instructor to
grade!!!!!!!).
